I am currently dealing with complaints about the building work above 79-81 Whitley Street. If you would like to look it up the planning application reference it is: 07/01652/FUL.
Working hours for the site should be 8am-6pm Monday-Friday and 8am-1pm Saturday. Work outside these hours should be referred to Environmental Protection. or you can contact us if you wish. I am aware of the work last Sunday and the planning enforcement team are looking into it. I've also had a query about the safety about the scaffolding which is not fenced off and accessible from the street.
There is also a planning request to turn the old HSBC bank unit into a fast food outlet. If you wish to object then you can do so online at: Planning Application Contact Form. The address is 81, Whitley Street and the planning application reference is: 09/00202/FUL.
It is worth noting that if an application is referred to Planning Application Committee then the total time to speak for all objectors is limited to 5 minutes, so if 5 people object and want to talk they will get one minute each. However, it is entirely up to you if you want to inform us of your objections so that we can help co-ordinate them.
Update 18-03-2009: The application to turn the old HSBC bank into another fast food outlet has been recommended for refusal, so those of you who wrote or emailed the council have got a result. We'll keep an eye out in case it is appealed or resubmitted.
